collect the information on this form. We will use the information you provide to verify wages or
resolve wage discrepancies for the individual named on this form.
Your response is voluntary. However, failing to provide us with the requested information may
prevent an accurate and timely decision on any claim filed or could result in the loss of benefits.
We rarely use the information provided on this form for any purpose other than for verifying wages or
resolving wage discrepancies. In accordance with 5 U.S.C. § 552a(b) of the Privacy Act, however,
we may disclose the information provided on this form in accordance with approved routine uses,

Security benefits and/or coverage;

4. To facilitate statistical research, audit or investigative activities necessary to assure the integrity of
SSA programs.
We may also use the information you provide in computer matching programs. Computer matching
programs compare our records with those of other Federal, State, or local government agencies. We

3. PRIOR WAGES. Please read the following instructions and provide the information requested
on the following page(s).
What We Need To Know About Wages and Deductions
Wages
We need to know the amount of gross wages paid to the employee in each of the months
checked on the back of this page and any additional pages. Base these amounts on actual
paydays in the month, not the ending dates of pay periods. For example, wages earned in a
pay period ending on May 29 but actually paid on June 5 would be included in the total gross
wages paid in June. If no wages were paid to the employee in a month that is checked, please
show "none."
Be sure to include in gross wages:
• Tips
• Bonuses
• Overtime
• Holiday and vacation pay
• The dollar value of payments in kind (meals or lodging, for example)
• Any contributions under a salary reduction agreement to a cafeteria plan as defined in section
125 of the Internal Revenue Code
• Garnished child support.
Do not include in gross wages any advance earned income tax credit payments.
Deductions
Please also provide the amount of any cafeteria plan deductions, garnished child support, or
any other item indicated at the top of these columns to the right of the gross wages. Please
show "none," if applicable. Completion of the "OTHER" column is only needed when a specific
item is listed at the top of that column.
